    i2c: s3c2410: fix possible NULL pointer deref on read message after write · 24990423
    Krzysztof Kozlowski 提交于
    Interrupt handler processes multiple message write requests one after
    another, till the driver message queue is drained.  However if driver
    encounters a read message without preceding START, it stops the I2C
    transfer as it is an invalid condition for the controller.  At least the
    comment describes a requirement "the controller forces us to send a new
    START when we change direction".  This stop results in clearing the
    message queue (i2c->msg = NULL).
    
    The code however immediately jumped back to label "retry_write" which
    dereferenced the "i2c->msg" making it a possible NULL pointer
    dereference.
    
    The Coverity analysis:
    1. Condition !is_msgend(i2c), taking false branch.
       if (!is_msgend(i2c)) {
    
    2. Condition !is_lastmsg(i2c), taking true branch.
       } else if (!is_lastmsg(i2c)) {
    
    3. Condition i2c->msg->flags & 1, taking true branch.
       if (i2c->msg->flags & I2C_M_RD) {
    
    4. write_zero_model: Passing i2c to s3c24xx_i2c_stop, which sets i2c->msg to NULL.
       s3c24xx_i2c_stop(i2c, -EINVAL);
    
    5. Jumping to label retry_write.
       goto retry_write;
    
    6. var_deref_model: Passing i2c to is_msgend, which dereferences null i2c->msg.
       if (!is_msgend(i2c)) {"
    
    All previous calls to s3c24xx_i2c_stop() in this interrupt service
    routine are followed by jumping to end of function (acknowledging
    the interrupt and returning).  This seems a reasonable choice also here
    since message buffer was entirely emptied.
